George Clooney and his wife, Amal, welcomed their twins back in 2017, and now the actor has revealed one funny parenting mistake he made…
George Clooney is one of the most famous actors alive today.
The Hollywood star has been in everything from ER to Ocean’s Eleven.
The sixty-one-year-old star has even won 2 Oscars!
These were for his performance in 2005’s Syriana and 2012’s Argo.
It’s almost like everything he’s in is destined to be a hit!
Well, that hasn’t always been the case…
Clooney has made no secret of his dislike of 1997’s Batman & Robin.
Unlike the 1966 TV show which followed the iconic pair, the final installment of Warner Brothers’ Batman series was not much of a success.
But this hasn’t stopped him from making remarks about Ben Affleck’s version of the DC character.
Scroll on to see just what Clooney said!
In a recent video posted by The Hollywood Reporter, Clooney can be seen joking about how his Batman was better than Argo alumni Ben Affleck’s.
He said: “When you think of me, you think he’s just the best Batman.”
To which Don Cheadle, who was in the audience, responded that Clooney was the “best available.”
But what Clooney said in response is the real cherry on top of this whole story!
Clooney hit back, saying: “Ben Affleck, really? He’s got nothing on me!”
For many superhero fans, Clooney’s claim is total hearsay…
Affleck has starred in 4 movies as Bruce Wayne, including in Justice League.
The fifty-year-old actor even has 2 more movies where he plays Batman in the works – Aquaman 2 and The Flash.
This is a stark contrast to Clooney’s rather dire Batman legacy…
Clooney’s only movie as Batman was widely panned by critics, and is even considered by some to be one of the worst films ever made!
However, the crowd was certainly on Clooney’s side.
Whether you prefer Clooney, Affleck, or another actor completely in the role of Batman, we can all agree that Clooney definitely knows how to work a room!
But putting his career to one side, Clooney hasn’t really opened up about becoming a father…
Until now.
During a recent appearance on CBS Mornings, Clooney told host Gayle King that his relationship with his wife Amal Clooney is “easy.”
He also revealed: “We’ve never had an argument.”
The couple who tied the knot back in 2014 welcomed fraternal twins, Alexander and Ella, into the world in 2017…
Admitted that marriage and having kids took away his selfishness and it really was a wonderful thing.
But Clooney was then quick to share one hilarious mistake he has made as a dad…
“We’ve made a terrible mistake. We taught them Italian. But we don’t speak Italian. So we’ve armed them with a language that they can harm us with. And we don’t really know what they’re saying,” he confessed.
“I’m from Kentucky. You know, English is my second language.” He revealed that their kids also speak French, while Amal added: “Our son is now a big prankster and he’s basically — you’ve [George] taught him all of these lessons and he’s now pranking his dad back.”
